New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - May 16, 2025) - Symposium Capital, a notable new fund based in New York City, has announced Yule Georgieva as Chief Operating Officer (COO) and General Partner. Symposium Capital distinguishes itself in the alternative investment space by focusing exclusively on tangible assets that combine cultural significance with financial appreciation. The firm's three key asset classes-fine wine, fine art, and rare comic books-have historically shown resilience against market volatility, offering investors a diversified approach to wealth preservation and growth.
Yule Georgieva, COO of Symposium Capital.
Yule Georgieva is an experienced business executive whose career has spanned across multiple industries including government, aviation, technology, and wine. Georgieva dove deeper into her passion for wine while honing her financial acumen with a finance-focused MBA from the University of Toronto, where she developed a model to track the financialization trajectory of different wines while pursuing her Wine & Spirit Education Trust Diploma in Wine.
From there, Georgieva spent the next four years building a wine cellar management startup as COO, developing the company's business model, establishing internal processes, and managing a wide portfolio, including marketing, partnerships, and finance.
Georgieva also currently serves as COO of Académie du Vin, a renowned wine education and events company founded by acclaimed wine expert and merchant Steven Spurrier. With an expert team and a growing network of collectors, partners, and investors, Symposium Capital is well-positioned to redefine how tangible assets are integrated into modern investment portfolios.
Symposium Capital specializes in Wine, Fine Arts, and Comic Books.
The announcement of Georgieva as COO ensures Symposium Capital has the financial and operational bench-strength to execute its unique acquisition strategy. Her deep understanding of the fine wine market, coupled with her broad experience and strong relationships will be instrumental in expanding Symposium Capital's presence in the high-end collectibles sector.
